Most Jersey business are built entirely on relationships. We like to know exactly who we are doing business with. Yet, when it comes to digital marketing, a lot of local firms are still missing a wide-open trick.
Right now, there are very few businesses in the Channel Islands running their own podcasts. The space is completely wide open.
But if you are thinking about launching a show to claim that authority, you need to know how the game has changed.
The days of the hidden, audio-only studio are officially behind us. Podcasts have gone visual.
The Data Behind the Shift
According to the latest global data from Edison Research, video podcasting has officially overtaken audio-only listening for the first time. The shift in how audiences consume content has happened incredibly fast:
82% of weekly podcast consumers now actively watch the video version.
78% choose to just listen to the audio.
To put that into perspective, back in 2023, nearly 90% of listeners were audio-only. In just a short space of time, consumer habits have flipped completely.
Now, don't get us wrong. Audio is still incredibly powerful, and there are plenty of audio-only shows out there absolutely crushing it.
But if you are launching a podcast specifically to grow a business, going audio-only means you are fighting with one hand tied behind your back.
Why Video is Great for B2B Marketing
For a business, a podcast isn't just a radio show, it’s a content factory. If you don’t record video, you miss out on two of the biggest drivers of modern marketing:
1. The Ultimate Repurposing Engine When you record a one-hour video podcast, you aren't just making one long episode. You are creating the raw ingredients for a month’s worth of marketing.
You can chop that single hour into dozens of short, punchy video clips perfectly sized for LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts. If you only record audio, you lose the visual assets that social media algorithms actually crave.
2. Building Face-to-Face Trust In a tight-knit business community like Jersey, trust is our ultimate currency. Seeing the actual faces, the body language, and the authentic smiles behind a business builds a layer of credibility that audio alone simply cannot match.
It transforms you from a faceless corporate entity into the go-to expert people feel they already know.
